Jorian off the air after giving listeners a mental image of Julia's bits

Everyone’s very excited, and even News Limited are running with comments made on 2CC this morning by the trouble-prone Jorian Gardner.

Mr Gardner said that on the breakfast show this morning he had been discussing lapel cameras for police.

He then suggested that Communications Minister Stephen Conroy should go into a cabinet meeting with a camera attached to his penis to video up the Prime Minister’s skirt.

“To see if she’s got any balls,” said Mr Gardner later.

When you consider station boss Peter Davidson was happy to re-broadcast Alan Jones incitement to the Cronulla riots he’s certainly got a funny approach to humour (Peter’s not shy about calling me up to give me a bollocking, once on Christmas Day, and I don’t even work for him).

On the other hand anything putting Senator Conroy’s tackle within view of the Prime Minister’s is something I’d prefer not to think about.

I asked Jorian if he planned to change his style and got this response:

No

I don’t plan to change my style

How is my sick joke worse than Alan Jones suggesting that we put gillard in a a sack take her tothe middle of the ocean and drop her in – thus killing her ?

A sick joke it might be

Threatening to kill the PM it is not

(Jorian prefers the Canberra Times report, and is back on air next Wednesday).

Wow! Does every topic on the Riotact get this far away from the original subject?

I have never seen it happen before. Never.

” Oh lol at anyone thinking a 2cc listener is sophisticated in anyway. I know a lot and they are for the most part a bunch of racist, homophobic bigots who are ignorant as poo. They do not believe in science or evidence and will believe anything mongs like Hadley or jones say with no proof besides rants.”

Um, mate. You’re a gamer and read comic books. Maybe you may want to broaden your horizons before you go mouthing off. I mean, comics and games, not what we would call the real world hey?

And no, I’m a 666 listener, not 2CC.

Peeps who pleh games and read comics don’t know about the real world now? Riiiiiight.

Anyways, comics and games may be fantasy, but at least they are open about it. Pretty much everything said on 2cc radio is fantasy but they act like its the truth.

@diggerty, my 21st was 9 years ago. Out of the 4 bell ends on during the day on 2cc that I hear at work, well one of them won’t have any kids for obv reasons, I really doubt the other three could be my dad. I guess if one had to be my father I’d pick mark Parton, he may be a nob but at least he doesnt appear o be a racist nob.

Use your brains, peeps.

Also lol, gazket, stay classy bro.

“Thou shalt not have two RDT’s then comment”

If I was your father, comic boy, I’d keep your words in a jar and bust them open for everyone to laugh at on your 21st birthday party.

Unfortunately, I’m not your real father– go find him, he might be on the radio show.

I would have thought the 2CC audience is the kind of audience that would love comments about doing physical violence to various politicians but would find any sexual imagery whatsoever whatsoever. You know, the Alan Jones audience

I know the sex jokes probably work with the fringe performers and stuff that Jorian pathetically tries to hold onto his long-distance youth with, but it really doesn’t work for the grannies who are his current audience.

Okay, to edit the stupidity out – first para should end “would get disgusted by any sexual imagery whatsoever. You know, the Alan Jones audience”

The only time I have heard this station is in taxis and I always feel like I need a shower afterwards.

I’ll also add that I think he should have his mouth washed out with soap simply for mentioning Stephen Conroy’s penis in any context whatsoever.

Steven Conroy’s penis? Why do I keep thinking of that scene in Wayne’s World where Wayne holds up a sign next to his new boss saying “this man doesn’t have a penis”?

His antics are more suited to a cheap-jack FM station rather than 2CC which is a conservative station with a far more sophisticated listenership.

More sophisticated listernership? Who listens to Alan Jones and Ray Hadlee religously? Are you suggesting cabbies are the most sophisticated blokes in the world?

2CC is for pensioners to get angry and dream of the fantasy world of the 50’s and 60’s they messed up for future generations.

Please tell us how today’s pensioners messed up the world?

Diggety said :

I didn’t think it was all that bad.

But, it’s always easier to sanction one person than redress the hyper-sensitivity of thousands.

Fair comment.
The national papers are full of reader outrage about this incident. Probably the outrage is eminating from the same people who were not outraged when Mungo McCallum called John Howard “an un-flushable turd” a few years ago.

and this is why I don’t listen to 2CC

I interpret his defence in this matter as “I said something foul and offensive about the PM, but another idiot said something even more foul and offensive, therefore what I said must be quite OK”.

Which, as defences go, is pretty lame really.

It truly is a shame the reason for his sacking from WIN Television was never made public.

Although, with Canberra’s tight knit media community I’m sure many people are aware of the truth.

hermanmunster18:56 pm 15 Jun 12

Who’s the “joke” now Jorian? Dick.

Fans of Mr Gillespie may be interested in his view on this matter, as expressed on Twitter (@CanberraUser):

pfffft….. put the “Prime MISTRESS” off-air instead! Get rid of her snivelling cowards with her.

seeing Julia’s skid marked transgender undies would make me sick .

That’s what I love about RA. High quality intellectually stimulating comment and debate about the local issues of the day.

Like travel, it’s always broadening.

Jorian Gardener should be kicked to death………………..

How are transgender undies different from normal ones?

I knew it wouldn’t be too long before Jorian was pulled off the air. Unlike other commentators, his style solely consisted of calling people “knobs” and referring to everything as “a joke”. Mark Parton at least tries to engage the audience and offer a more detailed and intelligent level of comment.

Jorian was skating close to the edge a few days ago when a photo appeared on Facebook showing him in the background flipping the bird at the camera while Mark Parton and Joe Privedello in the foreground were on air.

His antics are more suited to a cheap-jack FM station rather than 2CC which is a conservative station with a far more sophisticated listenership.

I think 2cc is showing its lack of balls now.

2CC is a weird place for Jorian to be anyway … isn’t most of their audience in their 80s and of the opinion that young people these days need a haircut and some sensible shoes? Doesn’t seem like the natural place for a young soul rebel like Jorian…

On the other hand, now that he’s successfully gained national profile, presumably he’ll be off somewhere where he can prepare himself for multimedia megastardom and shacking up with a higher class of women much younger than himself.

Haha love his fans dude he’s like 43 years old yeah ? far from being a young soul! love a sycophant!

I am sure Jorian meant Craig Emmerson.

Jorian is loving the attention. He is trying to be the next Kyle Sandilands, however, he lacks the intelligence required to pull that sort of thing off.

Are you saying that Sandilands is more intelligent than Gardner? A bit like saying a pig is more attractive than a camel, methinks.

Ok. here’s the deal.

Nobody named “Jorian” has ever been, or ever will be, worth paying attention to.

From the times I’ve met him and according to people who are better acquainted with him, Jorian is a massive wanker. That being said, I think he’s had a positive influence on Canberra overall, in the political capital of the country we need more people who are willing to say what they actually think and believe.

With charm and talent like that it is no wonder the ACT Govt decided not to give him any more money to finance his ego.

Totally OTT.

An utterly stupid comment.

Jorian is loving the attention. He is trying to be the next Kyle Sandilands, however, he lacks the intelligence required to pull that sort of thing off. Jorian generally has no intelligent contribution for his arguments, and instead resorts to name calling and gutter-talk.

The sooner 2CC wake up and get rid of him, the better – I am sure there are plenty of listeners who hear him come on and immediately change channels.

“I asked Jorian if he planned to change his style………”

Jorian has style?????

If “The Office” was based on Canberra’s local media, then this guy would definitely be the lead character. He is the end result of the lack of real talent in this town. Hokey, boring, and unfunny little man who keeps getting the arse when he is found out.

He would be loving the notoriety this is causing! shame its for a vile offensive attack on a sitting Prime Minster 😉 That boy has a head for radio 110% knob jockey! I was actually amazed that anyone was even listening, it is 2cc he’s on.
